2008-01-28rt2x00: Remove redundant code in rfkill setupLarry Finger
In rt2x00rfkill.c, routine input_allocate_device() is called even though input_allocate_polled_device(), which was just called, includes a call to that routine.

2008-01-28rt2x00: Only update rssi average approximation on receiving beacon frames.Mattias Nissler
Restrict rssi average updating to beacon frames of the bssid the interface is associated with. Without this restriction, strong signals belonging to other BSS, e.g. beacon frames coming from a nearby AP, would cause incorrectly high rssi approximation values. This would then cause the link tuner to reduce sensitivity, resulting in transmissions from the BSS associated to to be missed.

2008-01-28rt2x00: Add TX/RX frame dumping facilityIvo van Doorn
This adds TX/RX frame dumping capabilities through debugfs. The intention is that with this approach debugging of rt2x00 is simplified since _all_ frames going in and out of the device are send to debugfs as well along with additional information like the hardware descriptor. Based on the patch by Mattias Nissler. Mattias also has some tools that will make the dumped frames available to wireshark: http://www-user.rhrk.uni-kl.de/~nissler/rt2x00/ Signed-off-by: Ivo van Doorn <IvDoorn@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

2008-01-28b43: Changes to enable BCM4311 rev 02 with wireless core revision 13Larry Finger
The BCM94311MCG rev 02 chip has an 802.11 core with revision 13 and has not been supported until now. The changes include the following: (1) Add the 802.11 rev 13 device to the ssb_device_id table to load b43. (2) Add PHY revision 9 to the supported list. (3) Change the 2-bit routing code for address extensions to 0b10 rather than the 0b01 used for the 32-bit case. (4) Remove some magic numbers in the DMA setup. The DMA implementation for this chip supports full 64-bit addressing with one exception. Whenever the Descriptor Ring Buffer is in high memory, a fatal DMA error occurs. This problem was not present in 2.6.24-rc2 due to code to "Bias the placement of kernel pages at lower PFNs". When commit 44048d70 reverted that code, the DMA error appeared. As a "fix", use the GFP_DMA flag when allocating the buffer for 64-bit DMA. At present, this problem is thought to arise from a hardware error. This patch has been tested on my system and by Cédric Caumont <icare40@hotmail.com>.

2008-01-28libertas: rework event subscriptionHolger Schurig
This patch moves re-works the implementation of event subscription via debugfs. For this: * it tells cmd.c and cmdresp.c about CMD_802_11_SUBSCRIBE_EVENT * removes lots of low-level cmd stuff from debugfs.c * create unified functions to read/write snr, rssi, bcnmiss and failcount * introduces #define's for subscription event bitmask values * add a function to search for a specific element in an IE (a.k.a. TLV) * add a function to find out the size of the TLV. This is needed because lbs_prepare_and_send_command() has an argument for a data buffer, but not for it's lengths and TLVs can be, by definition, vary in size. * fix a bug where it was not possible to disable an event Signed-off-by: Holger Schurig <hs4233@mail.mn-solutions.de> Acked-by: Dan Williams <dcbw@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

1) Do not reset libertas devices upon module unload.

2008-01-28ssb: Convert to use of the new SPROM structureLarry Finger
In disagreement with the SPROM specs, revision 3 devices appear to have moved the MAC address. Change ssb to handle the revision 4 SPROM, which is a different size. This change in size is handled by adding a new variable to the ssb_sprom struct and using it whenever possible. For those routines that do not have access to this structure, a 'u16 size' argument is added. The new PCI_ID for the BCM4328 is also added. Testing of the Revision 4 SPROM, which is used on the BCM4328, was done by Michael Gerdau <mgerdau@tiscali.de>. Signed-off-by: Larry Finger <Larry.Finger@lwfinger.net> Signed-off-by: John W.

2008-01-28ssb: Add new SPROM structure while keeping the oldLarry Finger
The SPROM's for various devices utilizing the Sonics Silicon Backplane come with various revisions. The Revision 2 SPROM inherited the data layout of 1, and Revision 3 inherited the layout of 2. The first instance of Revision 4 has now been found in a BCM4328 wireless LAN card. This device does not inherit any layout from previous versions. Although it was possible to create a data structure that kept all the old layouts, we decided to start fresh, keep only those SPROM variables that are used by the drivers that utilize ssb, and to do the conversion in such a manner that neither compilation or execution will be affected if a bisection lands in the middle of these changes, while keeping the patches as small as possible. In this patch, the sprom structures are changed while maintaining the old ones. Signed-off-by: Larry Finger <Larry.Finger@lwfinger.net> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
